Supreme Emperor of Swords Chapter 485

Chapter 485 - 24 Moves of Swordsmanship

As a swordsman with outstanding appreciation ability, he knew swordsmanship very well. After looking at the swordsmanship on the wall, he could not help sighing. The ancient understanding of swordsmanship was somewhat different from that of the present time, probably because of the tide of the heaven and earth elements and the change of laws. However, it was very rare to see such a detailed explanation of the essence of ancient swordsmanship in the Land of Infinity. Even in the Library of Martial Arts in the Sky-Splitting Swordsmanship Sect, there were only a dozen unique copies. It was not like how it was here in the Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower, where the whole wall was about swordsmanship.

There were at least a hundred sets of different combat skills in the swordsmanship!

Not to mention the power of these sword techniques, the quantity alone was already comparable to everything in a library of a middle-level sect. If one could practice the sword techniques above… The thought flashed through Ai Qing’s mind, and he could not help feeling a little excited.

However, he did not dare to make his own decision.

Ai Qing was very clear about his status. At that time, he was just a slave servant around Ding Hao. If the people around Ding Hao were divided into ranks, then he was undoubtedly the one with the lowest status. Even compared with Li Tingtian and the other four people, he was much lower.

Therefore, he restrained the impulse in his heart and glanced at it briefly. After that, he did not dare to look at the sword technique on the wall carefully anymore. He lowered his head and behaved honestly.

“Regarding the combat skills on this wall, each of you can choose 10 of them to practice. Although they are only Heaven Rank fighting skills, they are the secret skills from ancient times. It is extremely difficult to practice them. I won’t let you practice too much. It’s not that I’m stingy, I just don’t want you to bite off much than you can chew.” Ding Hao saw Ai Qing’s little movement, but he didn’t care about it as he spoke to the six people.

“Thank you, master!” Ai Qing took the initiative to express his gratitude with a flattering smile.

He had now completely placed himself in the position as Ding Hao’s servant, and he was very happy to admit it.

Li Tingtian and the other four people also thanked Ding Hao.

Ding Hao chatted with Shen Buhui for a while and made it clear that he could also practice the swordsmanship fighting skills on the wall. Then he picked up the unconscious Ximen Qianxue from the stretcher, and along with Li Yiruo and Zhang Fan, they went up to the second floor along the white jade stairs.

“This is…”

Looking at the dense doodles on the walls of the second floor of the Sword Tower, Ding Hao was a little surprised.

Most of the drawings on the wall were not complete swordsmanship skills, but they looked more like the enlightenment and inspiration of a master in antiquity times. The words from ancient times were not much different from what they were at present, so Ding Hao could basically understand them. Much of the writing was intermittent, recording the inspiration at a certain moment, or practical results from some wonderful ideas…

Ding Hao felt as if he had entered a madman’s laboratory.

In the beginning, Ding Hao was a little disappointed. According to the thoughts at the first level, he originally thought that the walls on the second floor in the Sword Tower might have some god-level combat skills. Unexpectedly, there were such obscure contents. However, after he casually glanced at a few words, he gradually indulged himself in them…

The conception of the bone-forging skill in swordsmanship…

The conception of the physical body moistening the sword Qi…

The practice of turning the seed of Qi into the sword-heart…

The idea of turning one’s own body into a sword and both arms and feet into a long sword…

Those bizarre ideas, which seemed impossible, were all brought up on the intermittent words on the stone wall. Moreover, those ideas were mentioned, but the methods and approaches to implement these ideas were carefully analyzed. Many of them were strange practicing instructions, and that engraver also experienced them personally and constantly corrected them…

The drawings seemed to just be scribbled on the wall. If one could sort out their rules and order, it would indicate the possibility of cultivating swordsmanship. Each swordsmanship was shocking, and it would be thought to be absurd in the outside world. However, the person who scribbled on the wall was absolutely a peerless genius, and he actually found a feasible way…

“That’s crazy…”

Ding Hao looked at the wall with some horror.

What Ding Hao could absolutely confirm at that moment was that the person who left the drawings on the wall was absolutely a peak existence in the cultivation of swordsmanship. His understanding of the sword far exceeded countless eras. Not only that, but his strength at that time was also definitely one of the several existences at the peak level of the current world. It was no longer what Ding Hao could understand at the present level.

“What a great Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower!” The soft praise by the Sword Master came to his mind. “Although the things here are incomplete, they can definitely be regarded as a legacy of the god-level sword technique. The person who left these things at that time is a peerless madman, a peerless genius!”

“Well, Despicable Sword Master, do you also admit that you are inferior to others?” Of course, the Saber Master would not let go of any chance to belittle and mock the old foe.

This time, the Sword Master did not counterattack violently, but said with a sigh, “In the swordsmanship field, the essence is extremely profound. In this world, there are thousands of swordsmanship and combat skills, but no one can really master them all. Although I call myself the Sword Master, I dare not say that I have mastered all swordsmanship. The person who left the drawings on the wall is a ghost genius. Such a person who has been loyal to the sword in his hand all his life deserves my praise!”

“Hmph, when you pretend to be deep, you still work out so many excuses for yourself,” the Saber Master muttered, but she did not keep teasing him.

Hearing what the two old monsters said, Ding Hao was a little more clear-headed.

According to the Sword Master, his opponent spared him by failing to stab him. Those strange methods of cultivating were not conventional, but they were very powerful. If they were carefully perceived and improved, they could become a legacy of the sword technique at the god level, so that Ding Hao would benefit a lot in his life.

Ding Hao nodded.

He also wanted to do so.

Ding Hao had a special preference for swordsmanship. When Ding Hao saw these scribbled words, he was like a foodie who saw delicious food. He wanted to try them on his own and master them so that his trip was worth it.

The second floor of the Sword Tower was twice as large as the first floor.

In addition to the main hall, there were also six or seven small rooms, with a practice room and a bedroom. They were simply arranged with some stone beds and chairs. Those beds and chairs were all as crystal as jade and full of brilliance with a strange force contained in them, making people feel calm when they were seated. The Qi in the body was extremely active, and the bones and muscles were energetic. Those stone beds and chairs had many wonderful uses!

“It’s a proper place in great condition to settle down Senior Sister Ximen!”

After discussing with Li Yiruo and Zhang Fan, Ding Hao took out all kinds of blankets and bedding that had been prepared a long time ago, and chose one of the rooms with slightly better ventilation as the temporary residence for Ximen Qianxue.

Ding Hao originally wanted to set up some more inscription formations in the bedroom, but later he found that the stone walls and all the stone devices were extremely hard and could not be carved into. On second thought, the Heaven Sabre – Peerless Sword Tower was so heavily guarded that even the people at the Martial King level might not be able to break in, so he gave up.

When there were only Ding Hao and Zhang Fan, taking care of Ximen Qianxue was inconvenient. They could not help the beauty in a coma change her underwear and clean her body. Now, with Li Yiruo, everything was much more convenient. The beautiful girl took the initiative to do more to take care of Ximen Qianxue

After a hard journey, Li Yiruo didn’t have a good rest for more than a month. Finally, she settled down and soon fell asleep.

“Xiao Fan, the Sword Tower is full of sword techniques and fighting skills, so I guess that there should be fighting skills and manuals related to saber techniques in the Sabre Tower. You can look at them at will. Perhaps it will be very helpful for you to practice saber techniques,” Ding Hao finally felt relaxed and suggested to Zhang Fan with a smile.

Zhang Fan nodded and walked to the Sabre Tower along the stairs on the second floor.

Ding Hao went to the hall on the second floor again.

He wanted to continue to look at those wonderful ideas carved on the wall, but when he came to the south wall and looked up, he was surprised to find that there was a large area there, where the handwriting and patterns were very neat. Every character was square, and the pattern was clear and lifelike. It was a picture of a young woman practicing swords. The carvings were fine, and the figure seemed to be alive. It was absolutely a masterpiece created by a great grandmaster of calligraphy and painting.

“Are they… 24 Moves of Swordsmanship?”

Ding Hao saw that at the very front of the neat painting, there were four words neatly written: “24 Moves of Swordsmanship”.

He didn’t understand what the strange name meant, so he kept reading. After a moment, he suddenly understood that the neat painting was divided into 24 parts, each of which was a picture with hundreds of tiny characters, representing a change of movement of the swordsmanship.

They happened to be 24 Moves of Swordsmanship.

At the end of the painting, such a paragraph was engraved neatly in the seal script—

“I have been studying swordsmanship all my life. When I was two, I studied swordsmanship. When I was two and a half, I gave birth to a Qi seed of swordsmanship. When I was four, I became a Primordial Sword Master. When I was 10, I entered the Martial King Realm. When I was 16, I reached the Martial Royal Realm. When I was 20, I became a Martial Emperor. When I was 40 years old, with a sword in my hand, I swept through the length and breadth of the land and was invincible. I sighed while holding the sword in my hand that I was so lonely without any rivals. One day, I had a great ambition of watching various combat skills of all sects in the land. After traveling for more than 200 years, I absorbed all the swordsmanship moves in the world, integrating them into one: 24 Moves of Swordsmanship. The sword techniques are changeable, but they all originate from my 24 moves, so I named them 24 Moves of Swordsmanship…”

“What a deep manner of speaking!”

Ding Hao couldn’t help being shocked by the man’s tone.

Such a person claimed to have seen all the sword styles in the world and integrated all the sword styles into 24 moves; he must have had absolute confidence in his own vision and cultivation. Unfortunately, at the end, he did not leave his name. Nobody knew who the senior master was. He was able to defeat all rivals in the whole land with a sword, so he was definitely not a nobody.

“24 Moves of Swordsmanship, hehe, there is something in it. This person’s understanding of swordsmanship is really earthshaking. Looking at the unconventional ideas about sword cultivation on the walls, I thought that he only took the evil path. Unexpectedly, he developed himself from the right path to the evil one… Yes, a person like him who has such a profound understanding of swordsmanship would definitely not reach such a realm by taking the unconventional path of swordsmanship development all the time!”

The Sword Master’s exclamation gave the highest evaluation of the set of 24 Moves of Swordsmanship.
